Freshmen impressing

[umhurricane2511]

Dude was so smart he didnt need to think his way out of a paper bag. He's just build himself some miniature chairs and sit happily inside the bag.

I was pleasantly surprised by Fisch's ego-free playcalling. I thought he'd be more similar to Whip given his background.

The short passing game was very good at times

Whipple's 1st down play action bombs became comical.

What about the 3rd and 15 pa bombs with max protect on.

Jacory's half-hearted pa fakes weren't helping anything either.

Jacory could have been Houdini with his fakes the opposing defense wasn't falling for that weak *** playcalling

Yeah, it's hard to fall for a PA pass when the offense is in 3rd and long. The max protect just made it so he had nobody open and what the **** may as well throw it for grabs.

Coincidentally, Whipple suffered a similar regression to that of almost every player in the 2008 class.

Golden's a much better judge of people than Shannon.

 

[AtrainCane]

Guys, Im no fan of Whipple's playcalling. But there were a lot of plays where the primary deep route blew the top off the coverage, and one of the other routes came WIDE open. And what happened most of the time was Jacory missed the read, or it was a throw he knew he couldn't make............. SM could make the throws but Jac.........

But so what. Whipple's job was to work with what he had, not prove he could construct an offense jim kelly could thrie in.

Not defending Whipple's silly playcalling but there were other times when PA was the right call and Jacory just kinda halfassedly put the ball in the general direction of the running back all the while staring down his primary receiver. It was definitely a marriage made in football **** with those two.

This thread would not be complete without bringing in the third and fourth components: our receivers and our pass protection. How many times did we watch receivers - AJ in particular - run the wrong route or better still not even run the route but sort of trot it? How many times did we watch teams line up in what was an obvious blitz package and the hot read forget that he was supposed to look back at the QB? Then there was the horrible pass protection. Horrible in part because we were often in obvious passing situations with a nervous wreck QB, gunslinger OC, and wide receivers who often seemed lost. I harken back to the game up in Charlottesville, VA when the University of Virginia trotted out their JV team, ran like five plays all game (just ran them repeatedly and efficiently), and we laid an egg. First win over a D-1 opponent in forever if memory serves. I watched AJ give no effort during that game. It was so obvious the Canes in my section were asking why the &ell he was still in the game. We made that defense look like the Baltimore Ravens. Then they came down this past season, clearly a better team than the year before, and they beat us again. Being an old school Cane it has taken tremendous fortitude to watch my beloved program over the past decade. Better days ahead.

Was it a coincidence? What did they all have in common?

Cant put everything on Whipple and Jacory... For the posetr mantioning Morris would have made those passes, how often did he throw a pic? I sort of liked Whipple calling but it may have been to advance for our players... Our wideouts dropped how many passes? Forgot how many routes? I remembered the UVA game we came out so flat and we dropped so many passes... I remember Hank dropping a deep ball at the beginning of the game... The team as a whole, coaches players in all came up short... We took our opponents for granted and was shell shocked by the results...

Someone should investigate.

Whipple gave Jac a lot of simple *** reads and throws yet Jacory constantly ****ed them up, constantly did half *** play fakes and constantly under performed at QB in almost every important aspect (his on field demeanor was pathetically **** poor and was the antithesis of leadership)

Randy Shannon calling a time out during the 2 minute offense against Clemson at a crucial juncture started it or pushed things over the edge IIRC.

Too much revisionist history and football ignorance when it comes to Whipple's tenure here. He gets a very bad rap with the fan base and much of it is undeserved. Whipple was stubborn and he did possibly stop trying after a certain point which is inexcusable since he's supposed to be a professional but Jacory being **** and Randy being ****tier as a head coach was the main problem not solely Whipple.

My main point is that the base and potential for a great offense was there in Whipple regarding the schemes and his play calling. Randy Shannon and Jacory ****ed a lot of that up. Most of you are carrying on like Whipple was trash and the sole reason for the offenses struggles when he was not.

 

[Chicken_N_Roffles]

lol @ at all of that. Yea, none of it is on Whipple. Outside of the BC game, Jacory was one of the most efficient QBs in the country after only spending 6 months with Fisch last year. I'm sure it wasn't Whipple's fault when Morris and Spencer threw 4 picks between them in one half as well. It wasn't his fault that he decided to not even go for 3 on the last drive against Clemson. It wasn't his fault that UNC knew we would be looking for the deep PA pass on every other 1st down and Butch just told his safeties to play centerfield and wait for it. It's not Whipple's fault that with an entire offense returning full of juniors, he managed to only score the same amount of points per game that Nix did with a team chock full of true freshmen.
